SonicPresence SP15 XLR Stereo Microphone - A New Binaural Mic with Wearable HRTF Technology for Recording and Streaming Sound in Spatial Audio on Social Media, Podcast, ASMR, Live Events SonicPresence SP15 Spatial Microphone is a revolution in Sound Recording Technology. Recordings made with the SP15 immerse you in sound, whether you listen on earbuds, headphones, a soundbar or speakers. You hear sounds coming from left, right, in front, above and even behind you. SP15 enables YouTube Creators, Live Streamers, Broadcasters and people like You to easily record Professional Quality, Spatial Audio. It’s like having a team of audio engineers in your pocket. Our engineers developed the SP15 by taking a fresh, new approach to microphone design. They posed the question: Why are sound recordings so one dimensional when our sense of hearing has a fantastic ability to locate sounds coming from all directions? Research findings in the fields of psychoacoustics and cognitive psychology point to the importance of the spatial cues created as sound passes around our head. Termed HRTFs, it’s these cues that are critical for triggering our mind’s dimensional perception. Yet, traditional microphones do not capture spatial cues. Sonic Presence’s patented Spatial Microphone Technology captures the spatial cues and embeds the HRTFs while you make a sound recording. You wear the SP15 Spatial Microphone on your ears. It captures sound exactly as you hear it using a normal stereo recorder. No special equipment or software needed. When you listen to a SP15 recording, your mind detects the spatial cues. Your brain decodes them to recreate the original soundscape. You’re immersed in sound, 360 degrees in every direction. It’s as if you are there! The SP15’s fits comfortably over your ears using ear hooks made of polyurethane synthetic rubber. It’s a malleable material that you can shape to your own ears. The slip-on design is comfortable to wear and very discrete. It’s also shockproof
